We were busier than beagles at a Squirrel
Convention preparing for our 8th Annual BEAGLE BASH FOR CASH on Nov 24th!
We had time for little else…
until we learned that TIME was something these three dear souls didn't have.
That's when we did just what you would expect us to do.
We saved them.
They were dumped at a pound in Kentucky by their owner. All 3 of them. Why? Because they're old. That's their
crime.
We never rescued any beagles from Kentucky before
but time was running out and no other rescue had room. We reached out.
Look
at those faces. How could we not?
They didn't come with names. Well, the male
beagle was apparently called "Bull". We're hoping he's not that attached to it because we googled "Famous Kentuckians"
and came up with beautiful new names for their new life with us!
Country Music Hall of Famer Grandpa Louis Marshall Jones, born exactly 100 years ago, was a banjo player from Niagra, Kentucky.
He was also a cast member
on HeeHaw!
Born in Lexington, Kentucky in 1981, Laura Bell Bundy has become a Broadway actress and singer!
and SongWriters Hall of Famer, Haven Gillespie, was born in Covington, Kentucky back in 1888.
He wrote "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"!!!
Give our 4-legged version of these famous Kentuckians a little time.
They'll be playing banjo, hitting the stage and writing Christmas
songs before you know it!
Yep,
if it wasn't for YOU, it could never come true..
Grandpa Louis, Laura-Bell & Haven are Coming to Town!
I think they're gonna like it here, don't you?
